Princess Madeleine and her family will soon reside in London, it has been confirmed. According to the Swedish media outlet The Local, the royal court announced on Wednesday that Madeleine, her husband Chris O'Neill and daughter Princess Leonore will all be living in the British capital before the end of the year.

"The whole family intends to move to England at some point in autumn," press spokeswoman Margareta Thorgren told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet. "The plan has always been that the family eventually would move on. Chris' business is mainly in England."

It has been confirmed that Princess Madeleine and Chris O'Neill are setting up home in London

The confirmation comes after several months of speculation that the princess and her husband of two years were going to make London their home. While Chris and Madeleine had been living in New York, the city where they first met, they returned to Sweden in December with the intention of finding a new base in Europe.

If the move does take place in the autumn, it will come after Madeleine has welcomed her second child in her home country this summer.
